What would it take to trade back into Round 2?

Looking at the Trade Value Chart, there are a couple of possibilities:

Package both 3rd round picks (#71, #92) for a second round pickThe Rams two 3rd rounders are worth a total of 367 points. This equates to a second round pick in the range of pick #52-55.

Package a 3rd (#71) and fourth (#113) round pick for a second round pickThese picks are valued at 303 points, which equates to a selection at the end of the second round, around #59-61.

Use future draft picksI would not even consider putting one of the Rams' two 2014 first round picks on the block at this point, but I might consider a deal that includes a Day 2 2014 pick if it meant getting one of the top safeties remaining (Cyprien, S.Thomas).

Les said they are basically going to stay put. He says value for the Rams in the 2nd is very similar to the values available in the 3rd, so why move up? Looks like were staying put in the 3rd.

I'm fine with that, by the way. While I really am hoping Shamarko Thomas will last until pick #71, if he doesn't, and we still end up with D.J. Swearinger, Philip Thomas, Baccari Rambo, etc..., I'm good with that.

I think Swearinger is off the board quickly (mid 2nd-late 2nd), I think we will have our choice of Shamarko or Phillip.

Les did say that but I don't trust him or Fisher. The one thing I will never do is play poker with those guys!

Safety has to be the next pick... and I agree any of those names work for me. Watching the third round hoping for runs on WR,QB,RB ect..... maybe we get one IF we stay put. I would not have a problem if they liked Cyprien and went and got him.
